Y., special says: Frank J. Harwood, a | we'll known lawyer of this village, was to ! have been married last evening to Kittie Moran, beautiful and accomplished young I lady. The time set for the nuptials arrived, \ but the groom failed to appear. At 7 o'clock | the guests sat down to the table and dis posed of the wedding feast and the father of | the prospective bride stated that on account ! of the non-appearance of the groom the wedding could not take place. Miss Moran
 is one of the most beautiful and popular young ladies in town and the affair has caused great sensation. Various causes are assigned for MT. Harwood's failure to ap- pear, but the most plausible is that his mind has been unhinged by protracted ill.,
 health. He is supposed to have left on the morning train yesterday, although he told
 several parties that he was going to Clifton | Springs to take Turkish bath Harwood is | well known in this vicinity and it is sup posed by some that he has wandered away in | a fit of delirium. Miss Moran was very I much shocked. Harwood's friends claim that the cause for his unseemly action is that he is either crazy, disabled or dead.
